@rtyler I deployed my own instance of #OneDev and I haven't really used GitHub since. @forgejo is also a good option. Don't want to host your own? Then use code.onedev.io or codeberg.org public instances! #openSource #Git #GitForge #Collaboration

Forgejo: Die leichte Git-Forge für Sysadmins und DevOps

Warum du Forgejo kennen solltest Forgejo ist eine selbst gehostete, leichte Software-Forge, die auf Git basiert und dir als Sysadmin oder DevOps-Engineer eine vollständige Plattform für Code-Hosting, Issue-Tracking und CI/CD bietet. Du solltest sie kennen, weil sie ressourcenschonend läuft, 100% Free Software ist und Projekte wie Fedora sie für moderne, community-getriebene Workflows einsetzen. In der Sysadministration hilft sie dir, zentrale Repositories zu managen, ohne auf […]

I wrote once a blog about #GitLab, #GitHub, and #Forgejo (#codeberg). What to choose?

It is in Dutch, but I'm pretty sure your browser can translate it for you:

https://developer.overheid.nl/blog/2025/11/11/git-forge-overheid

It is a recommendation for a #GitForge for the Dutch #government.

Part of the conclusion:
In summary, from the point of view of digital sovereignty and digital autonomy is a self-hosted Forgejo the best choice for the government.

#digitalsovereignty #digitalautonomy

Who has still a #FOSS project hosted on #GitHub? Why?

Don't you prefer a development platform that is aligned with the values of free software?

Did you consider migrating to e.g. @Codeberg? Is there something holding you back?

Have you heard any recent updates on the federation? Last time I checked (a few months back) it seemed to be in the "nice to have" category but not particularly actively being worked on.

🤖🔒 A fox-led #crusade to bamboozle #AI #scrapers from a "Git forge" that sounds as mythical as it does unnecessary. 29 minutes of your life wasted on a convoluted game of hide-and-seek with bots, because apparently, that's the hill we're choosing to die on. 🦊💻

I feel like more projects should just self-host their core services again. Like self-hosting a #Git server (even if it is a fully fledged #Gitforge) isn't that complicated. And then you're in control of when it goes down and when it gets DDOSed you can just be like "LOL, *click disable internet uplink*" and continue working using e.g. a VPN towards it.

You can literally put it into your basement and serve millions of people whit almost no resources...

@number6 See for an elaborate discussion on the topic of using a free and #opensource git forge also this thread:

Ik heb een blog met een aanbeveling voor de Git-werkplaats van de #overheid geschreven:

https://developer.overheid.nl/blog/2025/11/11/git-forge-overheid

Conclusie: vanuit het oogpunt van digitale soevereiniteit en digitale autonomie is een self-hosted #Forgejo de beste keuze voor de overheid.

Anyone using https://git.sr.ht notice `git push` acting really slowly for the past few days? It was never like this before... Increased server load? #sourcehut #srht #git #gitforge #gitrepo

Example: Writing 11 objects, 1.2KB only. `time git push` took 1m3s total, 0.05s user, 0.04s system, 0% CPU.

Update: I think the error is local to me; I had some errors on `git fsck` and I streamlined `.build.yml`. It seems to be fixed now.

Finally migrated my personal website (powered by #HugoSSG) from #GitLab to #Codeberg. Including #CI via #ForgejoActions and hosting via #CodebergPages. Jobs are running on the local #homelab server.

There are jobs for building and deploying the website and for updating the contribution data through #contripy.

So far this has been very smooth and straightforward. Though I still need to learn the new CI workflow syntax as I'm used to GitLab from the daytime job.

#Forgejo #FOSS #gitforge

Hey FOSS-community, I'm trying to compare #GitLab and @forgejo.

Some important aspects are:

- #DigitalSovereignty (most important)
- #SelfHosting
- #Collaboration between instances (#federation)
- #PublicValues
- Prevention of #VendorLockIn
- #Scalability
- #Robustness
- Guaranteed #support by professionals
- Software #freedom
- #Longevity
- Suitability for the #government

Do you have any thoughts on this? Or any useful links?

okies, decided, today's the day... gonna start moving my repositories to codeberg... notabug.org's too consistently inconsistently available. n_n a little sad. mmmmmmuch fondness for notabug.org. ... i wonder, if i leave the repository off the end of the url in codeberg's migration tool... does it allow migrating everything in one go? :3

or should i skip codeberg, and go full forgejo? :)

So currently I'm hosting gptel-org-tools on my own forge...

https://git.bajsicki.com/phil/gptel-org-tools

I can't seem to find a good way for people to create issues.

I thought that creating issues via email was a thing with Forgejo, but it appears not.

So here's a poll. Despite my hatred of Microsoft, is it for the best to move the repo to GitHub?

Or is there some way to federate with GitHub users so I don't need to open public sign-ups on my git?

I'm not exactly clear on what the move is here.

@ngn Thanks for elaborating on this topic.

Im still not sure about #fedora being testing ground for #rhel, they surely have really formal way of introducing and documenting changes with their change proposals https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/program_management/changes_guide/ which to my knowledge from one of episodes of #techovertea by @BrodieOnLinux are later reviewed by #rhel and merged/notmerged into it. Some people asked about #fedora and #rhel relationship in the past https://discussion.fedoraproject.org/t/request-for-a-detailed-breakdown-of-the-relationship-between-fedora-and-red-hat/86775

For the source code availability, even with #gpl #license you are only required to share the source code to the recipients of the application/whatever you are distributing/selling, just because most #gitforge services allow everyone to view the projects stored on their servers, it doesn't mean it has to be like that - though, for open development process, maybe it should be? But that doesn't change that if #redhat called their #downstream #distro "freeloaders", its really rude.

They are doing it for profit, I guess. Not caring about their potential customers will get them eventually. But besides that, everyone has to earn money somehow, and having #foss product doesn't make it easy.

> best you can do is to put new tech and software into your repos, and encourage users to test and use it, which is what most rolling distros do

I disagree, although its good to have unstable features as opt-in, it introduces bias where the new features are only used by people that know about them, and know how to enable/switch to them. This way, you are severely reducing amount of useful bug reports that are crucial to know what are your users even doing.

Ideally you would perform AB tests, with ever increasing number of real users, and in case of issues you would simply #rollback the update to the latest stable version. Sadly, it would require that rollback feature, and prefill all system information in the bug report.
